Emojis are great for embellishing your text messages and captions. Whether they make your text messages funnier or allow you to subtly throw shade… side eyes I’m talking to you, we all use them at least once in a while. There’s tons of emojis and everyone has their favorites, I’m a big fan of the laughing, crying emoji which is actually called the ‘tears of joy’ face.
July 17th is World Emoji day! Some of them are easier to decipher than others so let’s take a crack at what your favorite emojis actually mean!
Unamused Face
This a staple in my emoji use. It’s known as the ‘unamused face.’ Pretty spot on though it really does look like a side-eye face.
Grimacing Face
This is known as the ‘grimacing face.’ Also appropriately, ‘awkward,’ or ‘eek’ face.
Anger Symbol
The faces are easier to decipher than the symbols! This seems like the token angry emoji but there is actually an ‘anger symbol.’ This is the ‘anger symbol’ and honestly, who would have known?
Monkey Emojis
So there are three different monkey emojis. We have the ‘see no evil monkey,’ the ‘hear no evil monkey’ and the ‘speak no evil monkey.’ Who knew the monkey emojis were actually that thought over? I just thought they were cheeky!
Hourglass not done
This is the ‘hourglass no done.’
Peach
The peach emoji or the butt emoji? Both.
Woman Tipping Hand
The ‘Woman Tipping Hand.’ It’s actually more than just a sassy, hey me pose.
New Moon Face
This is the ‘new moon face.’ Also appropriate for side eye or wtf face.
Princess
For all of us out there, we have the ‘princess emoji.’ This one is pretty easy to decipher.
